Wanted to start discussion on regular decision for my dream school. Deferred applicants as well.
heyo just submitted my app
My D submitted for Nursing last week. Thanks for starting this.
Hi everyone, I submitted my application on Jan 5 and still haven’t received my Penn Portal Applicant details even though I’ve been told we’ll get them within 48 hours… what should I do? I need to apply for financial aid (I need the login details to complete my PFAS) but I need my login details to do so 
Me neither, but my full 48 hours is by the end of the day so I’m not worried. Also maybe due to the high volume of applications received it might take a little longer. DOn’t sweat it!
Just realized that subject tests need to be sent officially… mine are on the way now
I submitted my app by the deadline on Jan 5 but still haven’t received an email even though it has been over 48 hours. Is anyone else in the same boat? Should I email the admissions office?
We submitted on 12/30 and received the portal email on 12/31. One of my Ds teacher recs was submitted on the deadline, 1/5, and the portal did not show it updated until 1/7. Hope this is helpful. Good luck everybody.
Got email one day after submitting right before the deadline. Also got alumni interview email.
Mine, too! Good luck to them both.
I totally messed up sending the SAT IIs ugh! Now I have to email them
Don’t forget to submit financial aid stuff by Feb. 3rd!
Applied with no SAT Subject Tests because I could not afford them and my counselor never told me about fee waiver for SAT Subject Tests. I think I may have messed up applying.
@cak212 subject tests were mandatory?!
Two subject tests are recommended, which means required.

Did everyone get an alum interview email already? Because I have not. I got one for one ivy I applied to but not the three others.
@benandjerrys101 Yes but it was a while ago. I promise you that it will not affect your admissions decision. I have gotten some and haven’t gotten others.
Has anyone received alumni interview for RD applicant? I haven’t received it yet…
Daughter received Skype interview with alumni on 1/16.
DD submitted application before New Year, and received alumni interview invite last week. I think the geographic availability plays a main role of the turnaround time.
